Hurrican« Reporter
“Impact ’71 is less than a week away and the planned activities are in full swing.
Eighty seven contestants entered the “Draft the Queen” contest and only twelve are left,” Hope Kourland, chairman of the queen’s contest said.
Miss Kourland said that the students selected five finalists out of the 12 semi-finalists in an election for the Homecoming Queen yesterday in the Student Union Breezeway.
“There were more freshmen in the contest than from any other classification. There are three semifinalists from every class. They were judged on beauty and poise,” Miss Kourland said.
The Queen will be drafted and crowned during a “unique” program planned for Thursday, October 28 on the Student Union Patio at 8 p.m. The finalists as well as the judges will all be dressed in Army uniforms since the theme is “The Army Feels the Draft.”
“For the final judgment all the contestants will perform variety acts. The best act will receive the crown, provided she has excelled in other phases of competition. The theme will be ‘Beat the Army,’ ” Miss Kourland said.
The names of the semi-finalists are: Roberta Haivey, 1968 Complex; Freshman; Peggy Litchford, Alpha Delta Pi, Freshman; Robyn Rentz,
Kappa Kappa, Gamma, Freshman; El-oise Taylor ZBT, Soph.; Linda Thompson, Chi Omega, Soph.; Holiday Jones, Kappa Kappa Gamma, Soph.; Angela Miller, ZBT, Jr. Sunni Beakley, Pi Kappa Alpha, Jr.; Lois V. Smith. Phi Beta Sigma, Jr.; Tina Etling, Delta Gamma, Sr.; Diane Daughetee, Delta Zeta, Sr.; Debra Butler, Black Sisters, Sr.
“We feel that this contest will be better than those In the past, since the standards are higher this year than they have been in the past,” Miss Kourland said.
Miss Kourland said that the judges come from the University administration and local citizens consisting of five men judges and one woman judge.
“During this time there will also be a pep-rally and a boat burning for the UM-Army game. We hope that this occasion will instill in the students the true spirit of UM,” Bill Hartman, chairman of homecoming said.
Hartman said that after the rally we will hold our candlelight procession around the lake. Students and Alumni are welcome. “We hope that all the lighted candles will prove to be a beautiful and moving experience,” Hartman said.
“I would like to remind everyone that the Homecoming parade will be on Wednesday night October 27, at
7:30 p.m.,” hartman said. “We have more of everything in this parade and expect it to be one of our best. We are expecting a large turnout for it.”

Elevated Campus Crime Rate Indicated By Students’ Fears
H’cane
Opinion
Poll
By KINGSLEY RUSH and ERIC BALOFF
Of TIM Hurricane Staff
Fear for personal safety and fear of robbery and theft appears to be on the minds of a majority of UM students this year.
In our weekly poll, 100 UM students were polled on controversial questions.
This is how it went this week:
When on campus, do you feel safe from personal harm, robbery and theft?
YES NO UNDECIDED 32%	61%	7%
Due to a rash of crime on campus, we thought it might be interesting to test the mood of the campus on this subject.
"I’ve walked in Central Park and felt less threatened than when I have to walk from the library to the
dorms,” one New York coed said.
Most students who replied negatively seemed to have experienced some kind of theft or robbery, or knew someone who had.
In a continuation of last week's poll, we asked the following question:
If the National elections
were held today, who would you vote for?
LINDSAY NIXON WALLACE UNDECIDED 36% 43% 4%	17%
McGovern nixon WALLACE UNDECIDED
31% 45% 4%	20%
Although President Nixon is polling a majority of UM students, John V. Lindsay drew some republicans over to the democratic ticket.
However, the trend is still a conservative one. Of the four leading contenders from the Democratic party, Lind-say seems to be the most popular so far.
Aid Former Student
A 21 year old former UM student facing certain death from kidney failure, is in need of $5,000 to help pay for a kidney transplant.
A drive to collect money for the George Nottage Kidney Fund will start Friday in the Breezeway of the Student Union.
Next week, we will offer
two more choices.
Nottage, who is not enrolled in UM this semester because of his illness, now spends seven hours a day, every other day, on a kidney dailysis machine which cleanses his blood.
Would you favor seating Formosa, Red China, or both Red China and Formosa in the United Nations?
Nottage will die if he does not continue the dialysis treatment or undergo the kidney transplant. He chose the transplant even though it is a high risk operation because as a young man he feels he could not go through life living off of a machine.	y
FORMOSA BOTH 30% 24%
RED CHINA UNDECIDED 37% 19%
The United Nations vote on this question is rapidly
approaching. The United States appears to back a “Two China” policy while Red China and Formosa have stated they will not accept a seat if they must share it.
"Both Chinas represent a certain group of people with certain philosophies,” one student said, “I believe they both should be seated; equally but separately.”
More students felt that both Chinas should be allowed in than those who felt that only Red China or Formosa should be seated alone. However more students favored Red China being seated than Formosa.
“I don’t feel that Red China and Formosa could get along in the UN, and Red China represents a greater number of people' so they should get the representation,” one coed said.
In a lighter vain, students wrede shown this photograph and asked the following question:
Would you buy insurance from this man?
YES NO UNDECIDED 7%	89%	4%
The photograph is that of Howard Zusman, Student Body Government Treasurer. Howard has been working recently on a plan to add revenue to SBC, coffers. The plan is to sell insurance to students. All we can add at this point is, GOOD LUCK Howard!

Tonight s Concert May Be Our Last
Conduct,
Security
Warned
By JILL MOVSHIN and KINGSLEY RUSH
Of The Hurricane Staff
Tonight’s Cannonball Ad-derly concert may be UM’S last if a newly formed Con-
See Dr. Halier'* re* ponte Io ihr Hiirrirnnp concerning concert* on Cage 3.
cert Evaluation Committee reports unfavorably on general concert security and crowd behavior.
UM Vice President for Student Affairs William R. Butler, in a memorandum to the Hurricane staff writer Jill H. Movshin, announced the formation of the committee.
Butler cited "inadequate handling of (last) Sunday evening’s concert” as the reason for his action in forming the committee and his refusal to allow a reappearance of the musical group, It’s A Beautiful Day, on Monday evening.
The Concert Evaluation Committee will be responsible for reporting on crowd and security activities at each concert. A similar committee was formed last year to evaluate student conduct at concerts after a moratorium or, campus concerts was lifted.
Butler said that the new committee would also study and make a recommendations for a location to be used as a permanent site for concerts.
In a meeting last Wednesday morning, Butler outlined and discussed with concerned students and administrators the new concert series changes that could be made to alleviate the present situation.
Butler said that reports he had received on the Boz Scaggs-It’s A Beautiful Day concert led him to the conclusion that the student marshal system had failed in preventing non-students trom gaining entrance to the concert.
Flagrant use of drugs and a lack of student responsibility toward required administrative details at last Sunday’s concert were cited by Butler as reasons to end the UM concert series.
"There were roving bands of young people at Sunday’s concert, and I don’t want to see anyone hurt,” Butler said.
According to Student Entertainment Committee Chairman Glen Lipnick, about 400 people were seated in the restricted baseball field.
Butler said that the inadequate lighting in the concert area compounded the danger of students being harmed. He pointed out that tonight’s concert might provide some special problems for the security forces.
Butler felt that the proximity of black neighborhoods in the UM area along with Cannonball Adderly performing tonight Could be an attraction for young blacks to attend.
Steve Schifrin, in charge of the student security force at concerts, said that many of the security people were attacked last week when they tried to prevent outsiders from "crashing” the concert.

Future Concerts In Peril
HURRICANE OPINION
The lack of security precautions and the flagrant drug abuse -which
was evident at last Sunday’s concert has threatened the future of on campus concerts. And only the students have the power to make sure that they remain.
When the edict banning concerts from campus was passed last year, there was an uproar from the students who felt that it was absurd to make them travel all the way to Miami Marine Stadium when the Soccer Field was perfectly adequate. When given the chance to have concerts back on campus (at the Sewage Treatment Plant) the situation was vastly improved. “Outsiders” were kept to a minimum, drug abuse was less obvious and security was more than adequate.
However, last Sunday the situation was worse than it had ever been. The threat of physical violence constantly hung over the concert grounds. People sitting directly in front of the stage were lighting joints and freely passing them around. Lighting was also inadequate.
Vice President for Student Affairs Dr. William Butler became concerned, as he should have been, when he heard the report. On some
campuses, the concert series would have been abolished immediately
after such a fiasco. But Dr. Butler has decided to give UM students one more chance.
A committee has been set up of students and non-students to observe the Cannonball Adderly concert which takes place tonight. This is it. If you blow it this time, you may have blown it for good.
The advice we have to give is the same as last year. Blow your dope at home and don’t add to the problem. Don’t help “outsiders” to get in. You’re only helping to jeopardize the concert series that you are paying for when you help high school students sneak in.
Better security personnel must be hired. Too many students hired to work security conveniently forgot what they were being paid to do once the music started.
Also, Coral Gables and University police should be placed outside the gates to help disperse crowds of potential gate crashers.
It has become obvious the past two years that the concert series is the most popular service provided to the students. The future of this series hangs on what happens tonight.
We have one more chance. Let’s not blow it.
Muskie Discusses Platform With UM
By JOHN REILLY
HvrriciiM New, Editor
Senator Edmund Muskie, a democrat from Maine, brought his presidential campaign to UM yesterday in the form of an hour long question and answer period with UM students.
Muskie covered a range of subjects including the Washington D.C. gossip.
“Everyone in Washington wants to be president,” he said, “except Henry Kissinger, he’s happy just running the country.”
Muskie said his statement in Los Angeles concerning a black vice-presidential candidate was widely misunderstood.
“I said the American people are not prepared to support a national ticket with a black on it."
Muskie said this is regrettable hut the American people would not support a black vice-presidential candidate for the same reason blacks are denied equal rights and
